With regards to the incorrect modification time appearing on some files, I
note the following:
ls -l on Node1 in a mirror:
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 40280 2008-03-17 12:03
/disk1/glusterfs/tftpboot/hardy64/pool/main/t/tasksel/tasksel-data_2.70ubuntu4_all.deb
Node 2 in the same mirror:
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 40280 2009-05-12 19:40
/disk1/glusterfs/tftpboot/hardy64/pool/main/t/tasksel/tasksel-data_2.70ubuntu4_all.deb
It appears that 1/2 of the mirror set the modification time correctly, but
the other half did not.
Just a bit of additional info. It appears that the first half of the mirror
has correct mtimes. The second half of the mirror has wrong mtimes on all
files, but directory mtimes are fine. When you go to view the mtimes on the
GlusterFS, sometimes you will get the mtime from one node, sometimes the
other, hence the seeming randomness.
Also, I see that zero-length files have correct mtimes on both halves of a
mirror.
Thanks,
